History of Theological library Maribor
When in 1859 the Bishop Anton Martin Slomšek transferred the seat of the Lavantine diocese to Maribor, he founded the High School of theology and the Lavantine Theological Library. The year 1859 is thus considered as the funding year of the Theological Library Maribor, which has been renamed several times through history. In 1903, the diocesan synod led by Bishop Michael Napotnik issued basic provisions on librarianship in the Maribor diocese (Actiones et constitutiones synodi diocesae ... Marburgi 1904, 846-7). In 1986, the modern open-type library Diocesan Theological Library among the first in Slovenia entered the new library system COBISS, and in 1994, the bishop of Maribor, dr. Franc Kramberger put the library into use by the Department of Faculty of Theology Ljubljana, which is a member of the University of Ljubljana. The library is vital within the three institutions: the founder and owner of the library is the Archdiocese of Maribor, and is largely used by the students of the University of Maribor; administratively it belongs to the University of Ljubljana. In 1999, the library published a book about the 140 year history of the Theological Library. Today it is included in Slovenian and international networks of scientific libraries; in addition to borrowing it organizes exhibitions, lectures, engages in international projects, and it is active on social networks.
